Nollywood actress, Lolade Okusanya has revealed that she got her family’s support and approval before taking on a daring role in the movie Ijakumo (The Born Again Stripper).

During her appearance on TVC’s Your View, the actress  disclosed that she made a deliberate effort to prepare her loved ones for the provocative nature of her character in the movie.

Lolade garnered widespread recognition for her portrayal of Sharon an undercover stripper in Ijakumo.

While discussing her role, the actress revealed that she fully immersed herself in the character, temporarily setting aside her own identity during filming.

“I was in that phase. I was not thinking about myself. So, before playing this role, I had already informed the most important people in my life, which are my family members. I knew they would support and protect me. While I was sending stripper videos to Aunty Toyin Abraham, I was also sharing them with my mum, my sister, my brother, and other important people in my life. I said, ‘These are the kind of things you will see on Netflix, is it fine?’ My mum responded, ‘Hmm.’

“But they had prepared their minds. They had also prepared their extended families’ minds. The people who mattered the most to me were ready. Social media can do its thing, but the people who mattered most to me were holding my hand.”
